Horse Riding (Colombo)

Colombo Horse Riding Academy is a new, purpose built facility within Colombo City limits - about 15 mins from Rajagiriya or Battaramulla areas. We are surrounded by beautiful nature and open countryside - healthy for horses, and we can ride over a larger area.

We have a few different programmes, depending on the interest of the rider:

Horseriding Introduction Course:This gives a really good range of experiences - formal lessons to learn riding skills, combined with trekking in the countryside, various games and exercises to gain confidence, and introduction to horsecare. We designed the programme to give the most value within each session, and so that the riders can enjoy the experience as much as possible.Certification will be awarded for the completion of all units.Teenagers and children Protected content .The Course runs over a two-month period, in Saturday morning sessions.
